Sorry I’ve waited so long to write this to you, but I’ve been meaning too for a couple weeks now…it’s only fitting on the day my sister and her husband said “I Do,” to post this because life is too short not to tell the people in our live how we feel.

On August 19th, you become a father…a dad! There’s another little lady in your life! Even though you might be out numbered now, just think of all the fun things you’ll get to experience as she grows. First steps, first words! You get to teach her all the lessons that were once taught to you, you get to share all your wisdom and fun activities, skiing, mountain biking, jeep rides!! You’ll get to teach her how to drive a car, you’ll get to frighten her first boyfriend, and walk her down the aisle. She’ll always be your little girl. How exciting is this whole new world you get to live in!

When she entered into this world screaming, she was the spitting image of you, how lucky was I, every time I looked into her little eyes I get to see the wonderful man I married! The words escape me now, but that first week was so hard for me. How can I thank you enough for stepping up and taking on the duties of both mom & dad. Thank you for being strong for both of us and I’m so happy that you had that time with our daughter to bond. We have our time together now, but those very few moments are precious to me because I know she was with you. There are so many things I want to say to you, but you already know…

You are an awesome dad and I can’t wait to freeze all the many memories we will make together! This is my favorite photo of the two of you, the first of many…

I am very thankful that the government decided to get it’s (insert bad word here) together and reopen, I am very thankful that our little peanut loves to travel and loves being in the car! I am very thankful that she is also starting to sleep “through” the night! I am also thankful our first family trip away from home went extremely well!

Even if we weren’t suppose to be in the park because of the shutdown, it didn’t stop us from just getting a little peek inside for Peanut’s sake!

Plus as a photographer I have to say I have been trying to use Kelvin (for white balance) and be as consider as I can with taking SOOC (straight out of camera shots)…and I will say that makes editing A WHOLE LOT EASIER! Especially when you have a baby and don’t have time on your side! I’m getting better…I will post about Kelvin and custom white balance soon!

It seems like time is flying by so fast and I’m still not getting anything accomplished! Though I did manger to accomplish taking her 2 month photo and hope to continue this until she’s at least a year old! It will be fun documenting each month and watching her grow! She is still fitting into a few newborn outfits, but it was sad when she didn’t fit into her very first outfit I ever put her in (I cried a little)…I will also be keeping that outfit forever (maybe one day she can give it to her little one!) She is getting so long, but has such a tiny waist, I’m guessing she will be tall like her daddy! I can’t quite tell what color her eyes will be yet, but they seem to be turning green now.

Her two month appointment is this Friday and she will be getting her shots…so hopefully that will all go well! And hopefully she is growing up to their standards this time!
